Review the application documentation, system security plan, application architecture diagrams and interview the application administrator.

Review the design document for web services using SOAP messages.

If the application does not utilize SOAP messages, this check is not applicable.

Review the design document and SOAP messages.
Verify the Message ID, Service Request, Timestamp, and SAML Assertion are included in the SOAP message.
If they are included, verify they are signed with a certificate.

If SOAP messages requiring integrity do not have the Message ID, Service Request, Timestamp, and SAML Assertion signed, or if any part of the message is not digitally signed, this is a finding.
